Wake up to a comforting bowl of creamy, perfectly cooked Crock Pot Oatmeal sweetened with Splenda—a low-calorie, sugar-free twist on a breakfast classic. This simple overnight recipe uses hearty steel-cut oats combined with water, milk (dairy or plant-based), a touch of vanilla, and warm cinnamon for an irresistible depth of flavor. With just five minutes of prep time and the convenience of a slow cooker, this recipe is ideal for busy mornings or meal prepping. Customize your bowl with fresh fruit or crunchy nuts for added texture and nutrients. Whether you're looking for a diabetes-friendly or calorie-conscious breakfast option, this fuss-free oatmeal is a satisfying start to your day.
Spray the inside of the Crock Pot with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Add the steel-cut oats, water, milk, Splenda, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt to the Crock Pot.
Stir all the ingredients together to ensure they are evenly mixed.
Cover the Crock Pot with the lid and set it to low heat.
Cook for 6-8 hours overnight, or until the oats are tender and creamy.
In the morning, stir the oatmeal to combine it well, as it may separate slightly during cooking.
Serve warm in bowls and top with your favorite fresh fruit, nuts, or any other toppings of your choice.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of milk or water for a creamy consistency.
